A Slow Merger History of Field Galaxies since Z ∼
Using deep infrared observations conducted with the CISCO imager on the Subaru Telescope, we investigate the field-corrected pair fraction and the implied merger rate of galaxies in redshift survey fields with Hubble Space Telescope imaging. In the redshift interval, 0.5 < z < 1.5, the fraction of infrared-selected pairs increases only modestly with redshift to 7% ± 6% at z ∼ 1. This is nearly ...
متن کاملField Galaxy Evolution since Z 1 from a Sample of Qso Absorption{selected Galaxies
We present some of the results of a large survey aimed at establishing the properties of galaxies selected by their having produced detectable Mg II 2796, 2803 absorption in the spectra of background QSOs. The present sample covers the redshift range 0:2 z 1:0, with hzi = 0:65. From an extensive program of optical and near-IR imaging and optical spectroscopy, we nd that the galaxies appear to b...
متن کاملThe Luminosity Function Of Field Galaxies And Its Evolution Since z = 1
We present the B-band luminosity function and comoving space and luminosity densities for a sample of 2779 I-band selected field galaxies based on multi-color data from the CADIS survey. The sample is complete down to I815 = 22 without correction and with completeness correction extends to I815 = 23.0. By means of a new multi-color analysis the objects are classified according to their spectral...
متن کاملField E+a Galaxies at Intermediate Redshifts (0.3 < Z < 1)
We select E+A candidates from a spectroscopic dataset of ∼ 800 field galaxies and measure the E+A fraction at 0.3 < z < 1 to be 2.7 ± 1.1%, a value lower than that in galaxy clusters at comparable redshifts (11 ± 3%). HST/WFPC2 imaging for five of our six E+A’s shows they have a heterogeneous parent population: these E+A’s span a range in half-light radius (0.8 < r1/2 < 8h −1 kpc) and estimated...
متن کاملThe history of mass assembly of faint red galaxies in 28 galaxy clusters since z = 1 . 3
We measure the relative evolution of the number of bright and faint (as faint as 0.05 L ∗) red galaxies in a sample of 28 clusters, of which 16 are at 0.50 6 z 6 1.27, all observed through a pair of filters bracketing the 4000 Å break rest-frame. The abundance of red galaxies, relative to bright ones, is constant over all the studied redshift range, 0 < z < 1.3, and rules out a differential evo...
